At the start of April, when beginning the spring of 1944, came to the farm Anselmo accompanied by two young men. One of them, a member Anselmo group and another one, told Charles from the EIF, who had brought us to Aunt Ana’s farm, sending him. Anselmo explained that the following day my brothers, and I would leave out to a village by the bottom of the mountain. The Jewish explorer would go with us. Aunt Ana insisted on coming together with us in the wagon thrown by “Coquette” up to the place with the person responsible. This person will take us to the point of meeting between the children who would

That night Aunt Ana helped to explain to my brothers, we must leave, time to continue our journey to Switzerland. She took care of arranging the bags of Ivette (Leah) and Jacques (Jacob) also prepared a package of food for each of us and added a blanket to each of my brother's bags. As always, always, Jacques would bring in his bag his notebooks of drawing, the wooden box of his chess game. In the pocket inside his jacket, his box with insects, which he collected on Aunt Ana’s farm. Ivette would have his doll tete in his arms, and Prince would come with us. I would bring my backpack with my map of France, where marked the path to reach Switzerland, my canteen full of water and my knife. Early in the morning left Aunt Ana farm. Settled Prince, my brothers and I along with Aunt Ana, accompanied by Anselmo and the Jew explorer. We started the way towards Fay’s sur Lignon, to meet the person that would lead us to the place where we find the rest of the group. We reached the place there beside a wagon covered by a canopy stood a man with a larger hat, Anselmo, Aunt Anna and the Jewish explorer greeted him. It’s time to say good-bye to Aunt Ana; Ivette is tightening her doll tete her crying and Jacques (Jacob), …show more content…
He affirmed that he would deliver us to the person responsible to guide us to our upcoming step. We would be all right. Already installed Aunt Anna came to us and pulled the three of us together in his arms. For the first time since I left Paris, I cried. I felt tears coming out of my eyes. It started a further stage of our flight; we parted Aunt Ana. The man drives the cart pulled by a mule like Coquette, camouflaged under the canvas together with Prince. Later advancing en route the man indicates that our journey would be almost the entire day. The cart advanced along roads passing between farms; my brothers slept. Past noon, stopped under an enormous bridge to eat the food that Aunt Ana had prepared for us. Again, we continue our trip up to the village; a marquis's member showed that it’s necessary to turn aside since could not enter the village. The Militia, the German police and the Gestapo established a command post and a checkpoint at the village

    In the early year of 1942, the families of Japanese people are being ordered to start a move to Manzanar, California; the Wakatsuki family is one of them. Many Japanese accept the move because they are afraid of Caucasian aggression, but some simply see it as an adventure. Families have to put on identification number tags on their collars. Riding on buses to Manzanar, Jeanne falls asleep on the bus, nearly half of which is filled with her relatives, and wakes up to the “setting sun and the yellow, billowing dust of Owens Valley.”(pg 19) As they enter the camp, the new arrivals stare silently at the families already waiting in the wind and sand.…

    TODAY WAS NOT a normal day for walking home. The clouds that shined over the town made me slightly put off by the idea of Santa Rosa for a corn dog. Not like they had good corn dogs, but I was hungry and carried a heavy pocket full of sunshine. I guess I was meant to stop at a random road today, because as I stood staring up at the clouds (and finally knowing what Louis was doing all that time when she was daydreaming), I wasn't the only one who ditched school. There was another figure that came from the same direction that I had come from, stomping her way down the street and holding a look that was deadly, carrying a knapsack too big for her arms.…

    With the author’s writing style it is obvious here that there is a leap into the future. She begins her second section with a sentence similar to that which began the first, short and begging for more detail, but captivating none-the-less. Her family is now travelling through Europe, making their way from Dublin to London, Scotland and then back to Belfast, soaking in all the culture and history as they can. It does not take long to see that Belfast is the main focus, as it was said that “within ten minutes” of being checked into their hotel they had their tour guide ready to go, the description of whom makes me chuckle, as he is the spit of almost every taxi…

    They were put in the care of two 16-year-old girls. Edith can remember her mother crying and her father looking stern. She doesn't think she and her sister, who was two years younger than Edith, really understood what happened. Nazi officials got onto the train at the German border to make sure the children didn't take any valuables with them, though they were more interested in the older girls than Edith and her sister. The children were allowed one small case between them. Edith had a doll and both she and her sister were wearing little rings, along with a tiny necklace that Edith's mother had given her which she kept well hidden.”…
